Product information "PATRICIA Pinot Noir"


Growing area
The grapes for this wine derive from our 3 Pinot Noir-growing sites, at an altitude between 380 and 530m. The soils are characterized, on one hand, by morainic deposits on volcanic porphyry rock in Oltradige, and on the other hand, by west-facing, loamy and calcareous soils on the Eastern hillsides of Bassa Atesina.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand and placed in small containers to prevent excess pressure on the grapes. After destemming, the must is filled by gravity into the steel tanks where the alcoholic fermentation takes place (18-20 days). After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in large wooden oak barrels (50 hl), and for further 6 months in the bottle.

Tasting notes & food matching

Ruby red color with intense aroma of sweet and sour cherry as well as raspberry. This wine shows a lively acidity-framework and convinces with a juicy finish. Thanks to its velvety structure, it delightfully accompanies first dishes of the Italian kitchen as well as a wide variety of meat dishes.
